Methods of Fixing Foundation Problems

How can you fix your foundation problems? Groundworks offers two main methods of fixing foundation concerns, with a variety of options that can help you permanently. 

Foundation Repair and Reinforcement

Whether you have a basement or not, there may be times where your foundation itself has sinking or settling concerns. In this situation, you may need to boost the foundation from underneath. Your local foundation repair professionals provide multiple fixes to help you boost the actual foundation itself. 

Wall Repair and Reinforcement

The second method of foundation repairs is wall repair and reinforcement. Specifically, this comes into play when you have a basement that’s having foundation concerns. That can often turn into bowed basement walls, which you may need to reinforce. Your local foundation repair professionals offer three different methods of wall repair and reinforcement in this situation. 

We get it right the first time, every time, and our solutions are built to last.

FAQs About Foundation Repair

No, DIY foundation repairs won’t fix your foundation problems. Foundation problems run much deeper than the surface, so you need specialized equipment and expertise.

Yes, foundation problems are pretty much always serious. Your home’s foundation supports every other element of the home, so without a strong, stable foundation, your home is at risk of collapse. That’s why it’s so important to fix every foundation problem as soon as you’ve uncovered it.

Yes, foundation problems are not something that you can just leave alone. When you start to see basement floor cracks and other signs of foundation issues, that means you’ve caught the problem early—which is great! But you need to address the problem to stop them from turning into even more serious issues.

Foundation repairs aren’t always covered by homeowner’s insurance, but you should contact your provider to make sure. Every Groundworks company offers affordable financing with reliable warranties, but read our guide on homeowner’s insurance for foundation repairs for more in-depth information.

Foundation Repair Is Easier Than You’d Think with an Expert 

One of the reasons many people worry about foundation repair is because they’re concerned it’ll be difficult. This is an understandable fear, but when you have the help of an expert, it’s not that scary. You can schedule your free inspection with Groundworks today and learn firsthand how important it is to have an expert along for the ride.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Mike from Foundation Recovery Systems for a bid on concrete stabilization work at our home. From the moment he walked in, it was clear that he was a true professional. He took the time to explain everything in layman terms, ensuring we understood every step of the process. Mike's approach was incredibly thorough and he patiently answered all our questions, making sure we felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire discussion. Unlike our experience with another company, Mike never made us feel rushed. He was genuinely interested in addressing our concerns and took the time to ensure we were confident in the plan. His friendly demeanor and expert knowledge left a lasting impression on us. Thanks to Mike’s exceptional service, we felt confident in our decision to choose Foundation Recovery Systems, signing with them the same day. We are also notifying our HOA that we highly recommend Mike and his team for their outstanding customer service and professionalism since other homes in our neighborhood are experiencing the same foundation issues.

Very appreciate of the work done to solve water issues in my basement. Antoine Gant, Gerald Peoples, and Troy Griffin did a phenomenal job installing a drainage system and pump. Along with the installation work, they also helped clear all the sandbags away from the work area. I’m thankful for their willingness to go above and beyond the scope of the job. It was a huge help. They were tidy, patient, and open to answering any questions I had. After they were done they gave me very specific instructions on how to manage the work area. No complaints at all about the work these gentleman did in my home! Blessings.

If your building/home is sinking, Groundworks is your solution! My neighbor was getting their building lifted so I decided to get a quote since we are on the same soil. I was very impressed with Cody Wellner who came to give me a quote to just keep 1/4 of my building from sinking any further. He took photos in my crawlspace to show me the cracks that I can't see as well as showed me the cracks on the outside. I asked if I should put support in other parts of my building and he said it isn't needed. Because he didn't try to upsell me which I have felt other companies did try, I felt this company is one I could trust. The whole process was incredibly easy. Groundworks worked with my city to get the permit and once it was approved, scheduled the work quickly. Richard was assigned as the lead for the work. He was fantastic in keeping me posted on what the status and answered any questions I had. His crew (Fili, Frank and Sean) were all efficient, professional and did a great job. So if your building needs support, go with Groundworks!

I used FSS because it was listed in the Best Pick Reports. My foundation repair began on Wednesday, October 23rd and was completed on Thursday, October 24th. My repair crew consisted of Earle C, David H, Robert T, and Moses I. These young men arrived at the time they said that they would or earlier. Earle was the team lead. Earle took the time to answer my questions, was knowledgeable, and provided reassurance. The construction team were very respectful of my property, and were courteous.

Our building foundation had settled so I contacted AFS. They sent Josh J who answered all my questions, gave me a quote and was in constant communication with me throughout the job. He provided exceptional service and went above and beyond by giving a video presentation to the HOA board members. If you’re looking for a Team that is experienced, knowledgeable, fast and professional then the installation work done by Tyler C, Abel P and German C should be your first call. Our building’s helical pier installation went smoothly and for the quoted price. Don’t waste time, call these guys!

Both crews did exceptional work, Nick Bohal and Josh Bomar called and said they could come by a day earlier than expected if that was ok, so we said sure. They worked well together and explained each step they were doing, which made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend the whole experience to anyone needing foundation repair. Kind of expensive but quality ain't cheap. Thanks, guys!

This is a long overdue review of our experience working with matvey (now groundworks) this year. We had the unfortunate experience of needing fairly major foundation work done on our new (to us) rambler home in Woodinville. The project was large and challenging, adding 45 push piers, mostly installed within the crawlspace, which had tight access. The team was a pleasure to work with – Zac was professional and communicated clearly about the scope and requirements of the project. The construction team, Alex, Luis, and Kender, worked incredibly hard under tricky conditions. Alex made a point of giving us regular updates on, and sharing pictures of, their progress. Foundation problems are not a fun thing to have to deal with…. But we are very satisfied with the experience working with matvey.
